Do I need to spell out the difference between a no-fly-zone and an invasion? Let's see, here's a hint, one involves bombing civilians and the other doesn't... .
"The Feminists drove Senator Bob Packwood out of the Senate for merely kissing women who did not want it, yet the ignore what Clinton did which is far worse by their own standards."
No it's not! You must be one warped individula if you think that consensual sex and kissing someone who does want to be kissed are EVEN the same thing.... what Packwood did is not only wrong but illegal.
"They've taken what already existed, improved upon it in most cases, and released it freely."
Exactly! The FSF has spent the last 15 years creating the core of a free "UNIX"; forming a free foundation for later generations to build on. In another 15 years they will be legends:) .
"USB scanners, seem to present big challenges for Windoze98" hmmm I just got finished installing a USB scanner on a 98 box.... worked like a charm. It better, it's an HP and none too cheap;)
WTerm? I hadn't heard of it or I would have tried it! Why wasn't it on Freshmeat? It's not even linked at the Window Maker site... no wonder. How can they expect people to use it when it has no exposure? Let me know where to get it, please.
I started with WM and switched to Blackbox for a while. BB is really fast and small and looks good, but eventually I switched back to Window Maker... I need my dockable apps, dammit! Also, I have a sweet-tooth (eye?) for eyecandy and love the NeXTstep look and the ability to pixmap the widgets. Advice for all Window Maker users who use Eterm... try Aterm! The pseudo-transparency works with WMSetBG. It'll do tiled pixmaps, gradients and solid colors! And it has the pretty NeXT-style scroolbar. Out.
I consider myself a "natural" programmer. I take to it very easily and learn quickly. However, that doesn't mean squat to a recruiter... I have a Associates degree in programming/systems analysis, with a 4.0 GPA and have coded a couple freeware apps (not to mention countless for school and tutorials on my own), but I have no professional experience. To a recruiter, it seems, you're worthless without experience. But how can I get experience? Sigh, I guess it's back to college for a B.S. and an internship ( I wanted to get a real job first ). Or maybe I'll just go door to door... forget the clueless recruiters. If anyone reading this in the North Texas area (Sherman, Dallas) wants to give an "inexperienced" natural a chance, send me mail andy@koyote.nospam.com P.S. Yes I run Linux, yes I write my own scripts, secure my system, compile tarballs, customize everything. In short, yes I have a clue:) P.P.S. I know Windows and MFC too

You don't know the Japanese word either... it's "Hara Kiri". Harry Carey was a sports announcer or something ;)

He said you could run a server on one processor and the client on the other... thast ought to give you a nice performance boost!

You, sir, are full of shit.

heheh... that's actually pretty funny...
But I suppose you're perfectly happy to order over the phone and give your credit card info to some minimum wage loser...
.
ummm... I... oh, never mind. I can't think of anything nice to say, so I'll just shutup.

That's C3PO... and you call yourself a nerd?

It occurs to me as I read your comments juuri... I'd rather be a complete moron than a total asshole like you...
C++ is dumb... needlessly complex. ObjectiveC is much nicer.
University libraries often have some good books on the history of computers and operating systems... as well as some crunchy unix books ;)
It's free! You're supposed to help not whine...
